Maybe you’re not the audience for smut. But be clear eyed that Kickstarter TOS, payment provider TOS, book laws in Alberta, these are all fascist foundations for even more insidious intrusions into the things we take for granted.

Oops opened Patreon! It currently set more as a newsletter but I will be adding tiers in the summer! patreon.com/shadiaminart

On lighter news, come to my and @nemesiskyo.bsky.social ‘s dnd popup event this Sat/Sun at Toridori in Carrollton TX to see average height* Astarion :) *or slightly above average; he’s 6ft but I originally printed him at 7ft and he was ginormous lmao

Yeah despite the “no non-consent” caveat I’m so sure spicy heterosexual Dark Romance serial killer novels are going to mostly unaffected by this since it’s such a huge part of general publishing nowadays. Like good for them but it’s bullshit

Any time I see a platform say “we’re getting rid of the depictions of illegal stuff” added on top, I’m like “cool, so you’re banning any projects depicting murders in them too?” Because last I checked… Absolutely insane

i have so, so many furious things to say about this but just to scream about one: when corporations declare themselves able to decide what art is or not made specifically for getting off, they are absolutely going to use that power to target even the tamest of queer art first.

I'm so tired of this. Again, with emphasis; Sex is a normal part of human existence. Art is a normal part of human existence. Sex in art is a normal part of human existence, and is morally neutral.

"According to the survey, 99% of artists “disliked” AI; for 92%, the dislike was “strong.” And that distaste translates into action, too. Per the survey, 85% of artists completely abstain from using AI at all. And 88% percent refusal use AI to generate images." Empowering

I need people to show up for fighting ID Verification laws the same way y'all hammered payment processors because they're effectively the same issue but ID Verification violates your rights & safety even more making it easier for the government to come after you & your personal info to be stolen

it's gotta be the kitties for day 30: whimsical 🐱🐱 #repostyouart #emmrichvolkarin #catEmmy

Made it into RCCC!! Anyone need a hotel roommate?? Haha orz

Artists! post a piece that didn't get much attention but you still love!! I can’t remember if this got traction online but I made it as a print and have maybe sold 2-3? But I could write an essay about why I chose this piece to spoof for Astarion etc

“People need to be nicer to each other online” and “people need to develop thicker skin because it’s not normal or healthy to get upset at everything you don’t agree with” are two statements than can and should coexist actually

'A simple (perfect) life' - my spring landscape is finally finished! An apple orchard in bloom, old railway, sheep with their lambs and an allotment being prepared for growing :) Zoom in to see all the other tiny details too... I think this might be my favourite aerial embroidery I've ever done!

“People don’t sell comics at comic conventions anymore” “Why is there so much merch where are the comics?” The only copies of my graphic novel that have “sold” I have *given away* so I don’t have to fly home with them, they are only $12 and are at the front of my booth yet no one is buying comics

finishing up the photoshoot with a lovely little guest star, which you can still get from @hannaschroy.com 's shop: shop.hannaschroy.com/product/datv...

tapping the sign

a mock cover i made for my newest GN pitch, a warren full of magic. hopefully some day you'll get to read about harriet, petra, and mallory scrambling to recapture a hundred magical bunnies before they destroy the grounds and gardens of a powerful witch (still seeking author/illustrator rep btw!!)

It is looking to be a very slow C2E2, so time to boost my online store! I’ve got cat charms, prints, and I’ll try and update it with the new stickers I made tonight! haunteddollco.bigcartel.com

my lord inquisitor i think your warden is broken #dragonage #dragonageinquisition #blackwall

“Separate the art from the artist” is a nuanced concept that should be reserved for dead creators only, whose legacies we have to grapple with in the context of history. It should NOT be used for living creators actively doing harm. That’s my two cents.

This should be an impeachable offense. I understand that we’re way past any of that, but that shouldn’t stop us from naming it.
